[Comprehensive] Goodbye, Asuna

What can 40 years do?

In human beings, 40 years is enough time for a teenager to grow into an adult who can afford a family. Not only will there be lovers and children, but maybe even grandchildren.

But for monsters, it's not a very long time.Some monsters have a very long growth period, and they are only adults at the age of two hundred. 40 years is only enough for them to grow taller.The specific layout of Baiyu Kingdom has not changed much, neither has it expanded or shrunk much.

Although these years there are always monsters who come here to join in, but at the same time there are monsters who can't stand the "tyranny" of Baiyu City and leave.

You can't do this, you can't do that, you have to go outside if you want to fight, and you have to learn boring human characters every day; it stands to reason that for monsters, they must be treated as hell.

But in fact, those who could stay did so in a down-to-earth manner. As for why, they would be very proud to say - fascinated by this kind of life, we are extraordinary monsters.

In addition to eating, fighting, and sleeping, they found more things here.

The door to another world opens in front of you.

There is something shimmering with mysterious brilliance in it-creation.

Sumu walked into Asuna's conference hall. He has seized the opportunity to collect books in the past 40 years, and has expanded several times with the library as the center.He seems to have a penchant for collecting paper books.

Asuna felt that this was a good habit worthy of praise, so she supported him very much.Be it spiritually or materially.

Therefore, Sumu was very honest with Asuna, and they got close.

"It is said that across the ocean to the west, there is another piece of fertile land, where there is another dynasty." Su Mu had a book rolled up in his hand.

"So what?" Asuna asked.

Su Mu replied: "There are more books there. You should go and see, right?"

Asuna felt as if she saw an adventurer born from her own country.She asked again: "How to get there? Do you want to swim across that vast ocean?"

"We build ships." Su Mu replied, and he answered very seriously, "I'll go find a few human shipwrights, and they will teach me the main techniques. By then, with the ability of our monsters, we will be able to build more than The ship of human record."

"Really?" To be honest, Asuna still doesn't quite believe that monsters can make such things. After all, the accumulation of monsters is still a bit superficial.To develop a new ship, it takes a lot of effort, to learn, to create, to experiment...

It's still a bit difficult for them.

Of course, once Asuna decides to do it, make a plan, and let the monsters work hard towards building a successful ship, it will eventually take a while, maybe decades or nearly a hundred years to build an unprecedented good ship.They certainly can do it, and it's a worthwhile good, the only problem is—

"Is it always developing towards the shipbuilding industry?"

This is a choice of the country's development direction. Once it starts, it is not so easy to stop.

Just like students choose their future career, this is a very important time to determine what they will look like in the future.

This was a very important choice, and Asuna felt that she should figure everything out and discuss it seriously with the monsters.

"Why not?" Su Mu nodded his desk with the book rolled in his hand, "Anyway, letting them idle is idle, let them do something meaningful?"

He is a smart monster and has read a lot of books, but he still can't understand Asuna's thoughts.He had just seen Asuna build the White Jade City once, and thought that if he used the same method, he might be able to achieve his wish.But of course it is different. When Baiyu City was built, it was based on plans. All the technical problems of the blueprints were solved by experienced human craftsmen. A ship that can cross the ocean is a development, and it can only be achieved by accumulating knowledge and experience. To achieve that wish, monsters will immerse themselves in this way for a long time.Once you embark on this path, you will go farther and farther.To go one way is often to reject the other way.She can't know whether this way is right or not.

She can't decide yet.

"Give me some more reasons." Asuna said seriously, "That reason alone is not enough."

"What more reason?" Su Mu asked puzzled, "You don't like this idea?"

"I still like it, but will everyone like it?" Asuna said, then turned to talk to the snake spirit sitting in the corner of the hall, "Do you want to build a ship?"

The snake spirit cheered up: "Boat? What is it? Is it a bed?"

Su Mu silently despised the mentally disabled children: "There is no need to like or dislike, as long as you give the order, everyone will do it."

"Of course I understand this. But this is not what I want in the end. It will lead the country to a dead end." Asuna may lack the arrogance of being a king, but this does not prevent her from having the vision of being a king.

"So you don't want to do this?" Su Mu asked.

Asuna stood up, packed all the things on the table, looked at Sumu seriously, and said, "I am indeed interested, and you are also interested. But everyone may not be interested in that thing. Maybe they will If I am interested in other things, I will also be interested in other things. There are many interests, and we can't realize them all. I don't want to drag everyone into this boat just because we are interested. But I don't want to deny that this is also a problem. good idea."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, go find people who are willing to support you, and let them join voluntarily. Maybe many, maybe few. I will let you set up a shipping organization in Baiyu Kingdom. As for the support I give you, it's up to you How many people can you get?" Asuna threw a difficult problem to Sumu, "Before I come back, you can get this done."

"Where are you going?" Snake Spirit excitedly said, "I'm going too!"

"Go and see Immortal Fairy, and, after receiving the news, the deadline for Sixteen Nights has come."

Asuna replied, and glanced at Sumu, who looked like he didn't know where to start.

Monsters themselves are not a group that is easy to get together, and there is no like-minded group behind Su Mu, not even a friend who understands his thoughts.In terms of force, although Sumu is not weak, he does not have the overwhelming strength of Asuna.

"If I'm the only one in the end, I can't make it by myself..." He looked at Asuna with a bit of annoyance, trying to confirm the question in his heart, "Are you sure it wasn't your polite refusal? If it was a refusal, or Just say it!"

Asuna smiled: "I will never break my promise. Geniuses are lonely, you should think of a way. I really look forward to the day when we can fly out of the atmosphere in a spaceship and see the infinite starry sky."

No amount of caution can be overstated for such a big matter as deciding the direction of the future. Asuna felt that if she just thought about it, it would be too self-indulgent, and she might as well let the monsters start thinking too.

Think about it, and there will be an answer.

Asuna went out the door.

-

Over the years, Asuna has often carried out "diplomacy" in the country. However, for most of the demon kingdoms with no rules, "diplomacy" is tantamount to making friends or making enemies.The ruler of the country mostly decides the so-called diplomacy based on his own personal preferences - those who hate it will be blocked by the whole country, and if they like it, the whole country will be treated with courtesy.

The country I often visit is of course the West Country.

Asuna is very familiar with going to the West Country. Snake Spirit, as a role similar to a bodyguard, often accompanies Asuna. He met many people here and had a good time.

Riding the flying monster, Asuna landed in the Western Kingdom again, and Xian Ji's demon attendant has long been familiar with Asuna.

"Master Asuna is here...Master Xianji is drinking tea in the side hall, I must be very happy to know that you are here."

Asuna waved to the demon waiter: "Go and do it, I know the way myself."

Asuna walked along the corridor to the side hall.Immortal Fairy sat cross-legged and leisurely next to the low table, reading a book. A cup of light green tea was brewed on the low table, and there was a curl of tea smoke rising from it.

Immortal Fairy raised her eyebrows, saw Asuna, and said with a smile, "You're here, I think you regard my place as your home."

Asuna also laughed: "That's because you treat me as one of your own."

The two of them were chatting casually, the decades of friendship, of course, there is no such thing as birth.

Xian Ji talked about her son: "Recently, I've been running outside all the time, with a lot of worries. The older the son is, the less cute he will be."

"...Actually, I have never found Sesshomaru to be cute." Asuna said honestly, shrugging, "He always has a cold face, and he seems to be indifferent when talking to him. Like I owe him something. Cool dude though."

"Sesshomaru is very cute, you don't understand my son's cuteness." Xian Ji said, "I like the appearance of his iceberg shell collapsing the most."

"Bad taste."

"But you do owe something," Xian Ji said blankly, "You owe us a battle."

Asuna was speechless: "...how can I do anything to my friend and his son."

Xian Ji had heard Asuna's excuse hundreds of times, and didn't care.The topic changed: "He is looking for Shizayoi. Or, his younger brother."

Asuna carefully looked at Xian Ji's expression, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, her beautiful golden eyes shone brightly, and she was completely in a state of gossip.

She smiled and said to Xian Ji: "It seems that that incident has completely passed."

"After all, it's been so many years. Don't talk about those disappointing things." Xian Ji continued, "It is said that the half-demon of that brat has a name called Inuyasha."

"You know so clearly?" Even Asuna didn't know so clearly.She just listened to the messenger she stayed here saying that Izayoi's end was approaching.

Xian Ji smiled smugly: "I also know that today is the funeral of that kid's mother. Sesshomaru also went, I don't know if she wants to take him away."

"Does he have any ideas?" Asuna raised her interest, "Does he want to bring him back?"

"If I bring it back, then I won't help him raise it, he has to raise it himself." Xian Ji smiled, "However, I really want to know how he raises the child."

Asuna: "Then... what are you waiting for, let's watch the fun too."

The two looked at each other, jumped up at the same time with a tacit understanding, and trotted outside.

-

When Izayoi's coffin was sent to the grave, everyone dispersed, and Inuyasha finally returned to the place where he had lived for 40 years.

The funeral of Izayoi was held in the other courtyard of the city lord's mansion, home of Izayoi, and it has just ended.In the small courtyard, pale white flags hang around, swaying slightly with the wind.

There were not many people in the mourning hall, because Shizayoi was originally a taboo in this family, and it was a dark history.Therefore, even if it was a funeral, it was very deserted.

A young boy with silver-white hair, sitting alone in the mourning hall, what is striking is not his figure of only four or five years old, but the two soft and pink dog ears on top of his head.

Half demon.

This is yet another reason to neglect their mother and son duo.For various reasons, an insurmountable gap was drawn to separate them from human beings.

40 years is enough for a person to die from old age, sickness, and death, but for a child with monster blood, he hasn't even grown up.

Therefore, when the wrinkled Izayoi was on the verge of death, he had to sigh: "Inuyasha...my child, it seems that I have no chance to watch you grow up."

Because the other half is human, and under the strong request of Izayoi, her father acquiesced in the existence of this child.And now, Shizaye has passed away, and his father, the old castellan, has also passed away before Shizaye.The current city lord has no reason to keep him anymore.

The current city lord also issued a tactful order to expel guests - "You are not human, so don't stay in the human world."

Saddened by the loss of a loved one, Inuyasha, who had been well protected by his mother, or at the request of Izayoi's father, grew up in this small yard, felt a feeling of having nowhere to go.The world is vast and boundless, but he felt that no place would allow him to stay.

Although he is not human, he is not a monster either!

When he was very young, he had seen a monster. As soon as he saw him, he pushed him heavily to the ground, making his whole body ache from the fall.But the violent person frowned and said angrily: "Obviously it is the blood of King Dou Ya, but after all, he is only a half-demon, too weak! I won't admit it." He left angrily.

No matter what his mother told him—because he was still young, he was still weak, and his father was a powerful big monster, and he could grow into such a powerful man, he didn't have any longing for monsters anymore.

Monsters, like humans, do not recognize half-monsters.

It seems that there is only one way for me to choose - to live alone.However, he felt that such a life was a bit scary, and he trembled slightly in his heart, but there was probably only one way to choose.

The white flag hanging on the door was raised high, Inuyasha squinted his eyes due to the wind, and then opened his eyes again, unlike ordinary people, a handsome man appeared silently as if brought by the wind.

Long silver hair, golden eyes, gorgeous robes, and white fur on the body, just standing there can make people feel a terrifying aura, but they can't move their eyes...

Inuyasha opened his eyes wide, opened and closed his mouth, and muttered to himself, "...Father...Dear?"

The author has something to say: I have to review... I don't know why these days, I'm so lazy...I'Msosorry.
